Puma Opens Shop On State Street Chicago

PUMA's second retail location in the Chicago State Street Development opened with tons of great energy, people and designs. Local DJs' Styles and Roman gave out prizes and the Jump Smokers danced while a cool crowd of shoppers filled their arms with the latest PUMA fashion. "Wages” from the evening's volunteer local celebrities and athletes were donated to the Chicago Red Stars Charitable Foundation.

This location, at State Street and Randolph, will be PUMA's first store ever to carry the whole brand, which includes sport-performance, sport-lifestyle, and sport-fashion. From their iconic lifestyle walking shoe to their extremely cute women's golf shoes. The high fashion collaboration with Alexander McQueen, Sergio Rossi, and Mihara Yasuhiro will be in stores shortly, but if you can't wait till then just check it out online. The SS Griffin T-shirt from McQueen and the Sergio Rossi heels took top spot on my Christmas list as soon as I laid eyes on them.

Carol and I were both blown away by how far active wear has come and are so glad to finally look cute while working out. So I suggest we do away with all our makeshift workout clothes consisting of ill-fitting t-shirts and baggy sweats and opt for a more streamlined and stylish ensemble from PUMA. Get yourself to the store and the friendly and attentive staff with take care of the rest.

Cheers to PUMA for their successful opening event and  thanks for providing us with such fashionable gear in our pursuit of fitness.
